Top Local Artist of 2014: Number 1

The number one spot this year of Local Acts of 2014 goes to a band I predicted last year to expect a big year in 2014 and that is Isobel Trigger. Most bands only wind up doing maybe one or two of the things this group has done in 2014.

This year saw the band become The Zone’s Band of the Month for April, saw the release of their new EP, ‘Nocturnal’, release two music videos for their songs ‘Tiger Shark’ and ‘Champion’, play at some of the biggest festivals on the island such as the Rifflandia Music Festival in Victoria and the Tall Tree Music Festival in Port Renfrew, get signed on to Cordova Bay Records, and they even had a documentary filmed about the band’s road to the Tall Tree Music Festival.

2015 will have a tough year to follow up on what this band has accomplished in 2014, but a cross-Canada tour in the Spring and another possible album release in 2015 shows that this band will not be resting on their laurels they had this year.
